Gladstone is 24 hours away from Puerto Lobos, so I've been driving for hours since yesterday. Daniel and I had to sleep in the car last night because we can't afford a motel. My bum is so sore and tired of sitting in this seat for hours. I'm excited, but a little worried at the same time. I rented a small cabin for us to stay at in a secluded part of the woods. We're in Oregon right now, heading towards Gladstone which shouldn't be too far away by now. It worries me that I won't be able to take care of him at all.Įven though I'm a little scared, it feels great to have a change of pace and take a little road trip with my lil bro. I don't even want to think about all the things I've been doing in order for us to afford everything. Living in Puerto Lobos all this time has been tougher than I thought.

I couldn't handle him crying in bed every night because of how much he misses our grandparents and his friend Chris in America and just being able to speak English to other people again. If it weren't for Daniel, I wouldn't take this risk. I think the police have given up on trying to find us or most people have at least forgotten about it, but it still scares me to be back here. Daniel has been missing America, so that's why we're here. I've been trying to teach him Spanish every night, but he gets impatient a lot and frustrated at himself that he isn't learning fast enough. He hates going there because of it, so he fights me on it every single morning when I have to drive him to school. Daniel has been attending a middle school in Puerto Lobos, but because of his lack of Spanish, he hasn't been able to make friends so he feels left out and lonely during school. Fleeing to Puerto Lobos, Mexico was our only choice in order for us to stay together. traumatic incidents that happened 2 years ago. We haven't stepped foot in America since all of the. My eyes return to the road, my thoughts wandering off. He's just staring straight ahead out the window and occasionally looking down at his hands in his lap. He's been really quiet for like 15 minutes. I glance over to my right, looking at Daniel in the passenger's seat.

I lightly bob my head along to the song '1901' by Phoenix as it plays on the radio. I flip down the sun visor to block the sun from glaring in my eyes. Clouds fill the blue sky and the sun shines in my direction. My foot on the gas pedal and eyes on the road, I drive through a practically empty highway with pine trees on each side of the road.
